The Happening

[Flagg]

I liked The Happening, it was very different to todays standard thriller/horror movies, it had a very old feel, like it was a Alfred Hitchcock film. Pretty ****ed up in places. I liked the parable with the bees in the beginning and then the enmasse deaths..some things simply cannot be explained, and I think that was also another good thing about this movie.

And thats the reason they give in the movie... some things just cant be explained "An act of nature" cmon give me a break. Its a cop out on telling a story. He just took the easy way out. The movie was bad on so many levels.

DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVENT SEEN THE MOVIE!!!!!! SPOILER:


This movie is about FOLIAGE making people kill them selves. Thats the dumbest idea ever. So undeveloped and premature this story line is... And to think the plot wasnt bad enough... they had to outrun the wind?! So not only are grass and trees releasing some sort of neuro-toxin making people lay down under lawn mowers, but now the wind is in on this mass murder and literally 'chasin' people.

Once Mark Wahlberg gave his hypothesis on the fact that the other group had 3 more people which was why they were triggered put me over the edge of disbelief that this movie was for real. This movie was almost as bad as the strangers. talk about an undeveloped story line. ugh.
